The gym session went well today.
I beat my PB on the recumbent trike by over 1/3 of a K. :)
Also managed 3 pull-ups, which was more than I had expected. Will work on this to get the upper body and core in better shape. ;)
The bike-riding charity came this afternoon and took away the Recumbent e-bike I was bequeathed by my deceased mate. :)
Mixed feelings about it; as it was his pride & joy and a link to him and the fun we both had touring in Holland on our respective trikes. :(:)
Keeping it was not an option really and I didn't want to sell it, so giving it to charity was the best thing I could think of.
 
Yes my lord, Splendid afternoon old chap having high tea on the green.:D
On the green? Peasant!
Why not in the orangery or on the terrace?

High tea? Can tell you are a Scottybugre! The Brits don't know what it is! Don't even know if they do it in Balmoral!

Cucumber sandwiches and Earl Grey tea on the lawn under the shade of a Cedar of Lebanon. With ladies in white who do not sweat, do not even perspire, simply glow gently. (Drool, drool, drool!)
Meanwhile we are finishing the quadruple G & Ts. Celebrating finally having picked, sorted and transported all the apples from the orchard, awaiting being pressed into juice next Monday.
Busy week so far, and will be busy till Saturday. Still feels kind of productive, which is good.
Enjoy the high tea!:):):):):):):)

@Stanleysteamer
My little Gnephew asked if I can give him 5p for every apple he picks, like a fool I say ok as he’s too small to get to the branches.
He comes back a bit later with a bag of apples & starts counting. I say could I have some more before I pay. So off he goes & I look out the window... cheeky thing is picking all the wind fall ones off the floor,of course he’s only getting the good looking ones.
Time to pay up...

Worrappens when yer pay oft yer morgig? Yeers ergo they add yer deeds. We dunt use deeds now. Fust time yer ouse wiv deeds be sold the deeds stop wurkin.

Does they send yer er cificut ter say yer payd oft yer morgig or does they just teld yer its owver? Does they teld the land registree ter remove the charge they as ont yer fishal registree documint sayin they avver intrest int yer castle as yer borrowd sovs offem?

Cheeers, matey, followed up the G&Ts with a nice bot so feelin well mellow now!
"Drookit", lovely (will have to look that fecker up) goes along with wee, sleekit, timorous beasty, etc etc Feckin Rabbie Burns!
The only Scots Burd I ever had a long term relationship with had a bod to die for and was mega fit but was a wee bit bossy, towards the end, hence curtains for her. But when we met was in a wine bar where someone had just spilt their drink over her blouse, to which I said "tis a bit early for a wet Tee shirt competition" she liked that and so we met up again, etc etc. So I don't knock it. Tis a great way to meet up!
Have not had a scots High Tea for ages. should be nationalised and made compulsory.
You have a Cedar of Lebanon? Great things aren't they? Real statement tree!
If you don't go for a tasteful cucumber sandwich with the crusts cut off and a cool as a cucumber burd just waiting to have her fanny filled with a sizeable chunk of Scots way hay! Then that is a shame!
Still each to their own.
(pay no attention to me tonight, I am under the affluence of incohol!):):):):):):):)

Funny you should ask. We already have the deeds to ours wiv loads of background info. Back in the day, all this were brickyards parantli.
Doris is gonna check out the land registry site tomorrow to see if there's been any changes but is likely too soon.
The only noticeable change for us is that the mortgage account has disappeared from the Halifax app onna fone. No 'ow did you manage that!?', no 'well done folks', no 'Fanks for your bizniss, opes to see you soon'..
Nope, niffink, bugrall, complete anticlimax, bastids. :oops:

You are going to be disappointed if you expect a trumpet voluntary 'cos nothing 'appens. Your lender just notifies the Land Registry and that's it. Eventually you should get the 'payment summary' and that will show you that the amount owing has come down to .. £0000000's.:)

Short answer, fu ck knows! Happened so long ago. As far as we were concerned I think we were supposed to own the property and the mortgage people would only have a handle on it if you failed to pay up, big time. The house was only ever collateral on the loan.
But others will come on here and tell me I'm wrong doubtless.
All I know is we paid off two mortgages on two houses and never heard anything from anyone!
